TAMPERS
BTI engineers and manufactures tamping tools in a variety of styles for many different tamping machines, all with BTI solid Tungsten Carbide protection. Almost as hard as a diamond, Tungsten Carbide has high impact stretch and can resist wear and impact applications far longer than steel. Extended part life means less downtime, higher production, and more efficient crews..
Ballast regulator parts
Production surfacing work quickly causes wear on key parts of ballast regulators, such as plow blades, wing blades and skid shoes. Ballast Tools Inc. (BTI) designs and manufactures Tungsten Carbide wear parts for railroad maintenance of way equipment. BTI’s plow blades, wing blades, skid shoes, and other ballast regulator parts are protected with Tungsten Carbide, which is proven to last much longer than steel. BTI manufactures other wear parts for ballast regulators, such as hinge protectors (Hinge Boss), broom elements and clamps, and Skeleton Broom Box Baffles.
UNDER CUTTERS
BTI Tungsten Carbide-protected parts are tough and durable, withstanding the grinding and abrasion that comes with ballast undercutting. Longer part life means improved efficiency, fewer change outs, and increased safety.
ADZERS
Standard Adzer Shrouds take a beating and wear out quickly, creating a safety hazard with flying debris. The innovative design of the BTI Adzer Shroud wears longer, seals better, and helps reduce dust during the cutting operation. BTI has designed a complete Adzer Shroud kit with wear-resistant steel plates that can be replaced several times before the outer and top plates show wear. The design enables the rubber pads to be retained in place and maintained more easily. Existing Adzer Shrouds can be rebuilt with BTI wear plates. BTI manufactures Adzer Shrouds for Knox Kershaw Kribber Adzer machines.
